LIFEPOD

The year is 2168, A.D. On the planet Venus there is a large space colony and a mining operation owned by the megacorporation called Earthcorp. The Venusians have begun lobbying for independence. They feel they'll never have relief from the brutally harsh working conditions imposed upon them by Earthcorp until they're self-governing. With the Venusian colonies on the verge of revolt, Senator Daniel Banks is dispatched by Earthcorp shareholders to hear the Venusian grievances and begin to negotiate a settlement that will avert hostilities. The handsome, womanizing Banks is returning to Earth aboard the luxury space liner Terrania when disaster strikes. Nine people frantically board Lifepod Seven and successfully eject the pod from the interplanetary liner just moments before it explodes, killing everyone left aboard. While the panicked survivors escape with their lives, they must face the grim reality that the force of the blast has launched them out of the search-cruisers' range and that they are drifting helplessly through space without sufficient provisions to survive for long. When the survivors uncover evidence, which proves that the Terrania explosion was the work of a saboteur who is now among them, they realize that everyone on board has a motive...and that no one is safe.

Keith A. (Keefer522) Reviewed on 5/28/2013...

Four low-budget sci-fi films on one double sided DVD. Includes:

"T-Force" (1994): in this mish mash of ideas stolen from "Blade Runner," "The Terminator," "RoboCop," and "Die Hard," a squad of lifelike police androids go rogue when they find out they're about to be shut down, blowing up half of near-future L.A. in the process. Fortunately a straight shooting human cop (Jack Scalia) is on their trail.

"Lifepod" (1993): A sci-fi variation on the Alfred Hitchcock oldie "Lifeboat," with a diverse group of passengers stuck aboard an escape pod after their luxury space liner explodes. One of those on board may be the saboteur...but which one? Fine performances by CCH Pounder and Ron Silver.

"Star Knight" (1985) ...WOOF, this was bad. In this '80s Spanish sci-fi/fantasy film, an alien visitor drops in on a village in Medieval Europe, where he terrorizes the peasants, romances a princess, and battles a bunch of klutzy knights. I'm not sure if "Star Knight" was supposed to be a comedy but it sure turned out that way. The only actors I recognized were Harvey Keitel (who spends the whole movie with a "What the F*** am I doing here?" expression on his face) and Klaus Kinski (who apparently would do anything for a buck at this point in his career), the rest of the cast is made up of people named "Jesus," "Javier," "Luis," etc. The film looks nice (costumes, sets, etc.) but the dialogue is painful and the "story" is slow moving and goes nowhere. Utterly godawful!

"Hidden Agenda" (1990) - An American (Kevin Dillon) travels to Berlin and learns that his older brother has been killed by unknown assailants, who soon come looking for him. I have no idea why this strictly average spy chase flick is on a "Sci-Fi" DVD as it has no science fiction elements whatsoever.
